[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let your kid be your kid. There are plenty of high functioning folks with Autism who have never been diagnosed, treated or fussed over. And they are living and functioning fully in the world today. [/quote] Exactly. I don't want my kid to think, I have Downs/Autism /ADHD, that's the way I am. I want him to think "I have strengths and weaknesses. These are my strengths. These are my weaknesses. How can I be a productive member of society with the brain I've got?" There's a certain victim mentality that kicks in on Instagram etc. Feel bad for me/my kid they're autistic. You don't need a label or to accept a label. You need to get the help you need. And what your kid needs. [/quote]
